καί λαλέω πρός αὐτός λέγω ὅδε λέγω κύριος ὡς σύ φονεύω καί κληρονομέω διά οὗτος ὅδε λέγω κύριος ἐν πᾶς τόπος ὅς λείχω ὁ ὗς καί ὁ κύων ὁ αἷμα ναβουθαι ἐκεῖ λείχω ὁ κύων ὁ αἷμα σύ καί ὁ πόρνη λούω ἐν ὁ αἷμα σύ
And you shall speak to him, saying, Thus says the Lord, Forasmuch as you have slain and taken possession, therefore thus says the Lord, In every place where the swine and the dogs have licked the blood of Nabuthai, there shall the dogs lick your blood; and the harlots shall wash themselves in your blood.

The Targum is the ancient Jewish Aramaic paraphrase of the Hebrew Scriptures — an interpretive translation, not the Hebrew text itself. Onkelos (literal) and Pseudo-Jonathan (expansive) render the Torah, and Jonathan the Prophets. Coverage is partial: where no permissively-licensed English translation exists for a verse, only the Aramaic is shown. This is verse-level text, not a word-by-word alignment to the Hebrew.

1 Kings, in the Historical, opens this verse with 10 words (10 distinct Hebrew lemmas). Its most distinctive word is mᵉdîynâh (“province”). The Greek Septuagint runs longer here. A historical commentator’s framing appears above. Read the whole chapter for the surrounding context.
Commentary
Notes on 1 Kings 20:19 from classic Christian and Jewish commentators (each source and its license shown beneath its notes). The classic Christian expositions comment on the surrounding passage and are grouped to its opening verse, so a note may address several verses; the Jewish commentaries on the Tanakh (Rashi and others) are per-verse, so they appear only where the commentator wrote on this verse.
